I know one way to get a UDM search running on a schedule is to convert it into a YARA-L detection rule, which then runs automatically based on the rule's run frequency. But for use cases where I just want a plain search to run every morning (or every hour , etc) and get the results in an alert for example,Β is there a native option in the platform to do such a thing?

There isn't currently a native way to schedule a UDM Search itself. If you need native scheduling and alerting, the supported approach is a YARA-L detection rule with a configured run frequency. Otherwise, you'll need external automation using the UDM Search API to run the query on a schedule. But I believe that's the only way.  🧠

There is currently no native way to schedule a plain UDM search. For alerts, the usual approach is to convert it into a YARA-L rule. If you need the raw search results on a schedule, you would need to use the UDM Search API with an external scheduler.
